Cabin: Mid-Ship Mini-Suite with Balcony

We met up in Atlanta and flew to Paris, CDG. What a crazy connection!!! That airport is very confusing. We made our connection in spite of having to stand in two very long lines for passport stamping and security.

We arrived in Barcelona and got a minivan taxi to our hotel...The Petit Opera Garden Hotel, by the Boqueria in the Las Floras section of La Ramblas. I found the hotel online through Hotels.com. We chose it for the location and we were not disappointed. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was quite nice with a view out the side. We could hear the Opera singers rehearsing when we opened our window.

We went to the Boqueria market. This is a must see for anyone who loves food! What gorgeous food! I am so jealous that the residents get to shop there any time they want. We picked out some great items, bought wine and had a picnic in the courtyard of our hotel.

Deck 11, loved the views, loved the tub and size of bathroom. TV was okay...would have liked a larger flat screen, tho.

When we were ready for bed, we could feel a great deal of vibration in the beds. This annoyed my sister, but

mainly because it happened at the same time each night. We might have been feeling machinery from the pool

system. We never found out what it was. It only lasted about an hour. We were so tired that we slept right through

this most of the time.
